7. Security Considerations

   Consult [1]'s Section 11 for a discussion of security issues.

   In addition, timestamps issued by the the access service may disclose
   location information.  If this information is considered sensitive,
   the special timezone value "-00:00" may be used (after converting the
   local time accordingly).
